Target demographics: We help children whoa re living with life threatening illnesses live a normal life.
Direct beneficiaries per year: nearly 1,000 children.
Geographic areas served: We welcome children with life threatening illnesses from all across the country and the world.
Programs: We are a unique medical camping facility where children battling the most serious illnesses can attend, free of charge. We run two types of programs. In the summer, the ill child (ages 7-15) attends a week long session with other children suffering from the same illness. During the school year, we hold family weekends wherein the child attends with his/her family. It is a fabulous opportunity for the ill child to come out of the shadows of their everyday lives and step into the spotlight with other children coping with the same challenges.
